On paper
This sounds good in theory, but I'd like to see it in action. How backwards compatible will it be? Will 3rd-party apps crash it? Will it force the user into a specific flavor of Windows in order for it to work?

The one thing I'd like to see in programming is the ability to type in the steps in sentence form and have the code produced from my instructions. I know there are some apps that come close, but I'd like to see it come a bit further than flow-chart style coding. Then again, we could just go back to BASIC and ditch all the unnecessary frou-frou happy

I can dream, can't I?
